Industrial HygieneOil and Gas Industry Safety & healthSafety Technology

Keep safety top of mind to protect oil and gas workers year-round

By Omar Vikin

Oil and gas processing involves some of the most challenging working conditions, which is why safety for oil and gas workers is critical. Plant sites can involve working in confined spaces, on slick surfaces, using dangerous gases and chemicals, and working with numerous types of equipment and machinery, all of which can pose health and safety risks. 

Furthermore, when normal operations give way to planned or unplanned turnarounds or shutdowns for maintenance, there are even greater risks of worker injuries. With more workers onsite for repairs and tight schedules to adhere to, and when every hour of downtime impacts the bottom line, creating a safe environment is essential so that workers can do their jobs safely and efficiently in order to return facilities back to peak performance quickly.
